Quick disconnect lines
Hey guys,
On the passenger side of the Z51, just in front of the cabin air filter are a couple quick disconnect..what I THINK are oil vent lines maybe? I need to pop them loose to get that filter out unless there's another trick I don't know about. How do those suckers pop loose? Thanks in advance!

Those quick disconnect lines are a great thing - sure makes removing the lines very easy.

Guys - thanks for the info. I found it MUCH easier to disconnect those lines and move them out of the way. My '14 Z51 Premier Edition came with body color painted covers in place and I also found it a lot easier to pop those off and get them out of the way as well. You're right - that OEM filter is pretty dang flexible (and flimsy). Not that it matters a whole lot, but I got Denso 454-5055 Air Filters (I bought a few) and they're about twice as heavy and thick as the OEM one. Much sturdier filter. They also have activated carbon (doubt that does MUCH - but hey) to supposedly cut down on odor.
Anyway - just wanted to say thanks for the replies. I appreciate the info.
